Default Re: E-Bay '69 Yenko Disguised As a Z-28 Clone!

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Fast67VelleN2O</div><div class="ubbcode-body">What is with the apparent &quot;vendetta&quot; against this car? Let the man do HIS research on HIS car. By reading his posts, Bergy seems to be an honest fellow on the hunt for the REAL history about a car that NO ONE ELSE had the cojones to purchase. Shouldn't a vehicle be innocent until PROVEN guilty? All anyone has about this car up until this point is stories, and no hard facts have been presented at all. Just let the man do his research and when he presents it to everyone, then have something to say about his evidence on the vehicle. No matter how the vehicle ends up (rebody or fixed original body) the car should be saved. It is a piece of Yenko history.

Take a step back Matt. All Marlin was doing was stating/clarifying for Jim, that there were two Yenko cars in the same general vicinity that were heavily damaged. He was seeking information from Jim that his statement about the RG yenko was tied to a specific VIN.

No one stated that the car shouldn't be restored, however its pedigree is important. 90% of those that posted just want to find out what is original to the car. There is a lot of hearsay that could be cleared up with a fairly simple inspection of the car. That hasn't happened to date and we are all waiting. Researching the history of the car is important but more important is the physical integrity of the car since it has been confirmed there is a VIN discrepancy. Until the inspection is done I'm not sure what % of a Yenko you are saving and that is very important.
